Belt Conveyor
Portable Belt Conveyor
1. Introduction
Portable belt conveyor is a kind of machinery that can transfer the material continuously by friction
drive.
According to different transport requirements, the transport system can be single belt conveyor or
consist of several conveyors or be combined with other conveying equipment.
And it can be installed horizontally or aslant to meet the needs of different production lines.

Belt
Belt is used for moving and
supporting surface on which the
conveyed material rides. It is the
tractive element. The type of belt
used need to depend on the
nature of materials to be
transported.
Idler
Idlers are the supports for the
carrying and return stands of the
belt.
Drive
Drive that imparts power to one
or more pulleys to move the belt
and its loads.
Structure
Structure is the support and
maintains the alignments of the
idlers and pulleys. Besides, it also
supports the driving machinery.

5. Performance
(1). A wider range of material can be handled which pause problems in other transportation means. Belt
conveyor can be used for abrasive, wet, dry, sticky or dirty material. The lump size of the transported
material is limited by the width of the belt. Belts up to 1400 mm wide are used in mining industry.
(2). Higher capacity can be handled than any other form of conveyor at a considerably lower cost, ton/km.
Conveyor belts with capacity of 11000t/h and even higher can be deployed to match with higher capacity
mining machinery.
(3). Longer distances can be covered more economically than any other transportation system. A single belt
conveyor or a series of belt conveyors can do this. Belt conveyors can be adopted for cross-country laying.
(4). By the use of many forms of ancillary equipment such as mobile trippers or spreaders bulk material can
be distributed and deposited whenever required.
(5). Many other functions can be performed with the basic conveying like weighing, sorting, picking,
sampling, blending, spraying, cooling, drying etc.
(6). Structurally it is one of the lightest forms of conveying machine. It is comparatively cheaper and
supporting structures can be used for many otherwise impossible structures such as crossing rivers, streets
and valleys.
(7). The belt conveyor can be adopted for special purposes (fire resistant, wear resistant, corrosion resistant,
high angle negotiation etc.) and can be integrated with other equipment.
(8). It can be horizontal, incline or decline or combination of all.
